I left my house and went to the store. The car started rightup. Got to the store, turned car off and went insideto get a few things. Came out less than 5 minutes later, got in car would'nt start. Turn key engine turns over but just won't start. Tried jumping battery, tried new battery, nothing works. What could the problem be? Help!

Do below to determine if its fuel or spark problem:

Get a starting fluid/ether/better off gas in a spray bottle and spray into the carb or the throttle body on an EFI. Did it start and die? If not disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 in away from ground have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, cap and rotor /distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, ECM, Ignitor camshaft and crankshaft sensors- Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
